What order should Heather Huffman books be read in? Good question. I'm not sure there is a perfect answer to that one. Each was written to stand alone, so they can be read in any order without hampering your enjoyment of them. Each of them ties to all of the others in some form or fashion, too. Some are suspenseful, some are light. I like to think all are warm and funny, even if they're tackling tough topics. It's hard to neatly categorize or define them. That said, I've tried to group books together that are most closely related to make it easier to pick what to read next. ​And if I absolutely had to pick an answer, I would say: Throwaway, Jailbird, Suddenly a Spy, Ties that Bind, Ring of Fire, Tumbleweed, Devil in Disguise, Roses in Ecuador, Waiting for You, Vance Davis Dossier, and Finding Broken Arrow

The Remuda Ranch Series

My new series is all about horses and cowboys and rodeo - and, of course, two soulmates finding their way to each other. For me, these books have been amazing to write - they combine my love of all things equine with my favorite characters. ​

Robin knows how to take care of herself and likes it that way. When her benefactor sends hired muscle to figure out who's been vandalizing the boys' ranch she oversees, the help is neither wanted nor appreciated. The fact that she accidentally hits on her new employee—after mowing him down with her cart in the grocery store—doesn't help matters any.

Vance isn't looking to step on any toes when he takes a job as head of security at the Remuda Ranch; he's just grateful for the fresh start as he navigates the challenges of raising the insta-family he inherited when he took in his younger siblings.

​Neither are prepared for the undeniable sparks between them or the possibility that their emotions run much deeper than physical attraction. But falling in love is tricky enough without a houseful of kids, rodeo pickup men, and rambunctious dogs and horses in the mix.

Awesome doesn't begin to define this book. Love, on all its levels...the sweetness, the sacrifice, the willingness to be selfless and the indefinable joy found there are all found in these pages by Heather Huffman. Job magically and magnificently done. ~Amazon Reviewer

Unlikely Heroes and Heroines

If you're looking for Vance's backstory, read this line of books. He doesn't show up until Throwaway, but the series isn't complete without Jailbird - which also happens to be one of my personal favorites. (Shhh, don't tell the others...)

The McAlisters

Devon McAlister first shows up in Suddenly A Spy. I knew right away he would get his own book someday; I just didn't realize his family would play such a dominant part in the world I was weaving. I adore these siblings; each of their stories is as unique as they are!

A Piece of Me

There is a piece of me in each of the books I've written - a shared experience, fear, or dream. But with these three, it goes a little deeper. Ties That Bind is very much me grappling with my own sense of self worth not being tied up in another's opinion. Tumbleweed is me learning to fight for my dream of owning horses - or any dream worth having, really. Fool's Game was the first book I finished, written at 17 and polished by an editor for publication more than a decade later. It amuses me to read it now because I can see my younger self in it. She was a feisty one.
